- In Barry Taylor and Alejandro Coroleu, eds. Brief Forms in Medieval and Renaissance Hispanic Literature (Newcastle upon Tyne: Cambridge Scholars, 2017), pp. 44-65.
- Description
- Identifies possible analogues to CYPT and constructs stemmata of narrative motifs to explore the relations between Chaucer's work and the others, showing that the ninth chapter of the "Kitah al-mukhtar fı kashf al-asrar" of thirteenth-century Syrian writer Al-Jawbarı provides close and numerous analogues to Chaucer's work, discussing details and motifs available to Chaucer via a "lost archetype" of the "Kitah" that is separate from tales by Ramon Llull and Don Juan Manuel.
